Ubaldo Jimenez will be favored in MLB baseball betting probabilities as he goes for his 15th win of the season on Friday as the Colorado Rockies host the San Diego Padres.



Jiminez has not pitched that well lately, although he has a 14-1 record and an ERA of 2.27, so the Padres have an opportunity in this baseball wagering matchup

Jimenez has allowed 17 runs in his last 17 2/3 innings but the Rockies have rescued him every time and he has not sustained a loss. In fact, although his ERA is 8.66, he’s still 1-0 in his last three starts. He is 3-0 with a 3.32 ERA vs the Padres this season and in his career vs San Diego he’s 7-3 with a 3.61 ERA.

Kevin Correia is expected to get the start on Friday for the Padres. He is 5-6 on the season with a 5.05 ERA. He is 0-1 in his last three starts with a 4.15 ERA. He is only 2-5 in his career against the Rockies with a 4.74 ERA.

Vs San Diego, the Rockies have won 11 of the last 19 matches. This season between the two teams, this is only the second series in Colorado. The Rockies took two of three at Coors Field back in April. The Rockies won 4 of the six in the last six meetings between the teams, which have been in San Diego. Five of those six matches went over the total but it ought to be mentioned that all three of the matches back in April in Colorado went under the total.

This season, San Diego has been an incredible team. The Padres have surprised everybody and stayed in 1st place despite the fact that they were picked for last in the National League West. It is now July and the Padres are no longer a fluke. San Diego has demonstrated they can win at home as well as on the road. They have a pretty excellent pitching staff and they find ways to score enough runs to win.

The Rockies are still in the mix in the National League West due to Jimenez and because they play well at home. The Rockies have been greater at home this season than on the road so this will be a crucial series for them to win against the 1st place Padres.
